Today marks the launch of the biggest and most meaningful project of my career. It's hard to put into words how much heart + hard work went into making this podcast. I hope you'll listen and be as moved, tickled, outraged, and awestruck by these stories as I still am. 🪩✨🔻🏳️‍🌈

1/ OUT NOW: Slow Burn Season 9: Gays Against Briggs Host @c_cauterucci explores one of the most consequential civil rights battles in American history: the first-ever statewide vote on gay rights. 🎧link.chtbl.com/yxMeVIiA

D.C.'s new "shadow senator"—essentially an elected lobbyist for the district—has promised to be an aggressive defender of D.C.'s right to govern itself. We spoke a few days before the election about what Trump/the GOP might do to take control of our city slate.com/news-and-polit…

D.C.’s Home Rule and fundamental rights will be under attack over the next two years. But I am asking you to not give up and not give in. We need you to join our movement to protect D.C. from the attacks Donald Trump throws our way



there are so many unilateral things Trump can do that Dems won’t even be able to run against, bc how do you explain “his FDA banned mifepristone, which was an essential lifeline in red states + made abortions safer/easier in blue ones” to voters who already barely listen or care

The second Trump administration is poised to launch an unprecedented crackdown on reproductive health care nationwide, stacking the executive branch with anti-abortion zealots who will use federal power to severely restrict access in red AND blue states. slate.com/news-and-polit…



History will remember 2024 as an even more decisive turning point than 2016. We know exactly who Trump is, how he governs, and what he intends to do. We were there for his presidency, for his campaigns, for Jan. 6. America voted to burn it all down. slate.com/news-and-polit…

As long as today's GOP is involved, U.S. presidential elections will never again be contests between two competing visions for governance. They will be fights between democracy and its demise. slate.com/news-and-polit…


A major abortion fund took a stance on the war in Gaza. The seniormost employee resigned & accused the abortion fund of antisemitism. In response, donors stopped giving. It's happening to nonprofits all across the country. I wrote about what it means: slate.com/news-and-polit…

slate.com/news-and-polit… “The falling-out at DCAF is emblematic of a much larger clash currently roiling the worlds of philanthropy and nonprofits,” @c_cauterucci writes in @Slate “Employees at left-leaning, mission-driven organizations have increasingly adopted a worldview that…


I wrote about a mounting crisis in the world of philanthropy: Nonprofits that take a stand on Gaza are losing millions of dollars. Here's the story of one D.C. abortion fund that was torn apart when staffers clashed on Israel and donors pulled out. slate.com/news-and-polit…


this is an incredibly vivid and smart dispatch from a tent revival for Donald Trump in Michigan, where believers were healed and poll workers blessed, from @MollyOlmstead slate.com/news-and-polit…


the real journalistic malpractice here is not publishing the sexts of a presidential contender and possible Trump cabinet member


This season of Slow Burn is so good - an essential look at how a fundamental threat to American democracy took root, with new reporting and unbelievable audio from the earliest days of Fox News.

The season premiere of Slow Burn: The Rise of Fox News is out today. It's about the moment when Fox really became itself, and became a bogeyman for the left: the 2000 election, when George W. Bush's cousin presided over the Fox decision desk slate.com/podcasts/slow-…



for Slate's new political advice column, I advised a person worried that their bf's "very different political beliefs" will lead to fights over which flags to fly at their home. imo flags should be the least of their worries!! slate.com/advice/2024/08…


Joel is the best

Hey folks, I was one of 4 people laid off by Slate & today will be my last day. Obviously, I’ll be looking for work. Hit me at joelanderson12@gmail.com Apologies in advance if it takes a while to respond; I just now tested positive for covid and I’m gassed. Thx for the support!

This Olympics moment shows where anti-trans calls to “protect women” have brought us. slate.trib.al/cnWyWjX


I wrote about the breathtaking bad-faith malice of the campaign against Imane Khelif. The international humiliation of a woman athlete who overcame sexism and poverty to excel in her sport is exactly what the anti-trans movement was built to achieve. slate.com/culture/2024/0…
